This research is part of a growing field called ‘active matter,’ which could one day lead to new drug delivery methods and ...

The new research focuses on the ambipolar electric field which was first theorised over 60 years ago by NASA's suborbital Endurance rocket, with scientists wanting to explore how the planet's ...

The phase and the group velocity of light propagating in conventional optical media cannot exceed the speed of light in vacuum. However, in so-called epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) materials, light ...

Dr. Barriga and colleagues found that cells of the neural crest are directed by internal electric fields during development, much like drivers follow the signals of a traffic warden. The group ...

Researchers have developed a novel experimental platform to measure the electric fields of light trapped between two mirrors with a sub-cycle precision. These electro-optic Fabry-Perot resonators will ...

Actually, we still recommend a professional high voltage detector for serious work, but you’ve got to like this electric field detector that [Alessandro] recently put together. The detector ...

Their study, published in Nature, reveals how electric field effects can selectively accelerate coupled electrochemical processes in graphene. Electrochemical processes are essential in renewable ...

Tumor-treating fields (TTFields) use electric fields tuned to specific frequencies to disrupt the division of solid tumor cancer cells. Novocure has launched Optune, its first TTFields delivery ...
